Dear Matt:
Any slight blue residue of blue that you see the first time wearing will dissipate by the next wearing.
Secondly, be sure to knead the ear plugs for 20 seconds just prior to insertion and then push 'firmly' in and against the ear opening (until you feel a good seal).
When you insert as I described above, you will have the HIGHEST BLOCKING EAR PLUG IN THE WORLD doing what it does best.

Your ear plugs are ok
Your ear plugs are ok but they are not as good as you claim them to be because my wife can still hear me snoring and i still sleep in another room.
So what do you reckon to that then!!!!!

Dear Malcolm:
This all natural, soft and moldable Beeswax earplug WILL NOT BLOCK OUT until you prepare and insert it CORRECTLY!
I too, wear this exact ear plug every night & it is without a doubt, the
HIGHEST BLOCKING MOLDABLE EAR PLUG IN EXISTENCE, but to experience the superior performance, you must follow these preparation and insertion directions (exactly)
and you will see why all the testimonials on our website page are true and accurate.
Note! Many women with smaller ear canals do not insert the whole ear plug;
for just after they have kneaded the ear plug to make it soft and moldable,
they pinch off at least (a third), and insert a smaller ear plug that fits their
ear canal better, is more comfortable, seals easier and blocks out better.
1. Just as you are about to insert, take ONE ear plug and {work it or knead it}
thoroughly between your fingers or hands for at least 25 seconds to make it soft, moldable and to disburse the Pure Lanolin throughout the ear plug.
Pure Lanolin makes the ear plug slightly “tacky” so that it stays securely in
the ear canal and seals it. When the ear plug is soft and moldable and ready
to insert, it doesn't matter what shape it is; round, flat, long or narrow; just
follow the next step. If you are going to pinch off to make a smaller ear plug,
then now is the time.
2. Using the tip of your index finger, push FIRMLY & FLATTEN the ear plug
IN and AGAINST your ear canal (until you feel a GOOD SEAL!) If it doesn't
seal immediately, then hold your finger pressed against the ear plug (with
slight pressure) for a few more seconds and it will seal well.
3. Now take the other ear plug, prepare it the same way & insert it into the
other ear. With both ear plugs inserted correctly & sealing the ear canals,
you’ll notice a big improvement.
4. To Remove: Simply pinch the ear plug with your thumb & index finger and
gently pull downward and out.
Malcolm know that Mrs. Belsher's satisfaction is our main goal, so please give this fine moldable ear plug, “A Fair Test” and feel free to write us for any help that she may need. Six million wives wear this successfully every night and Mrs. Belsher will be able to too.

Communication deficient
Good product, but shipping is very slow. The worst part is that when you write to earpluginfo inquiring about your order, they don't even bother to answer you.

silence not achieved!
No complaints regarding international delivery cost and time- very reasonable. Issue with ear plug product itself- claims overstated. Very hard to mould, not snug fit to ear, so sound gets in.

Good but not great
I was recommended by a flight attendant that the earplugs were the best and that they took out any sound. I would probably try to fit it more into my ear but I am not sure whether the material would get stuck or is hazardous to my health. For this reason, I cannot fit them very well in my ears to have them work properly.

Dear Yumiko:
Your flight attendant was right!!!
This fine ear plug will eliminate more sound than any other ear plug in the world.
Please do not be afraid to insert it, as it is held strongly together with special high strength cotton fibers.
Push it a bit firmly in and against your ear canal (until you feel the ear plug seal the ear). Now you'll be blocking out sound significantly!
To remove; just pinch the ear plug between your thumb and index finger, pull out gently to allow the ear plug to break the seal.
Yumiko, you've got the best. Now use them and enjoy a real ear plug!

Easy to install.
They are very easy to put in and very comfortable to sleep in. They block out most of the noise, but I find that I have others that are better at blocking sound. These are the best by far to sleep in, so if your hubby is a light snorer these are perfect, if he is a little louder...not sure if these are right.

Dear Stu's wife:
Light snorers or loud snorers does not matter; for if you prepare and insert this advanced ear plug correctly, you will know that you have the HIGHEST BLOCKING moldable ear plug in the world doing what it does best; "blocking-out"!
Please follow these instructions below (exactly):
1. Just as you are about to insert, take ONE ear plug and {work it or knead it}thoroughly between your fingers or hands for at least 25 seconds to make it soft, moldable and to disburse the Pure Lanolin throughout the ear plug. Pure Lanolin makes the ear plug slightly tacky so that it stays securely in the ear canal and seals it. When the ear plug is soft and moldable and ready to insert, it doesn't matter what shape it is; round, flat, long or narrow; just follow the next step.

Dear Stu's wife: we all wear this same ear plug with complete success and we want the same success for you. Please feel free to call the office for any help with inserting correctly.

Not as good as its claimed
While it is pliable and fit into the ear canal easily, it was loose and was not tight. I still can hear the noise. I think the product was good to reduce noise, but not to block out noise completely.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsMay 23, 2013
Dear J. Wang:
Our ultra-high blocking ear plug will block out more sound than any other ear plug in the world; but after you kneaded it to make it soft and moldable, you mush push it more (firmly) IN & AGAINST your ear opening (UNTIL YOU FEEL THE EAR PLUG SEAL)!
When the ear plug is sealing the ear opening, it will significantly block out much more sound than you are presently experiencing.
The pure Lanolin in the ear plug makes the ear plug slightly "tacky" so that it allows the ear plug to stay securely in the ear canal at all times.
Kindest regards

Sleep deprived
Not sure if I'm to rate the shopping experience or the product. The company and shopping experience was easy and fast, 5 stars. I received the earplugs in good time and was anxious to try them. My boyfriend is a loud snorer and I rarely get a good nights sleep. I was expecting these earplugs to totally block out all sound, but sadly they did not. I have used the molded style earplugs before and they worked just as well as these. I had quit using them because they made my ears itch. Not sure yet if I will have the same problem with these, I'm hoping since they are made of different material they won't cause itching. Overall, I'm a little disappointed, 3 stars.

Dear Dawn:
This ear plug works wonderfully, but to experience the exceptional blocking, you must follow these preparation and insertion directions (exactly):
The VERY FIRST TIME that you are about to use our ear plug, you must work or knead the ear plug between your fingers or hands thoroughly for at least 25 seconds, to make it soft, moldable and to disburse the Pure Lanolin throughout the earplug. All later insertions will only require kneading the ear plug for just 10 seconds.
SECONDLY! Many adults with smaller ear canals do not insert the whole ear plug; for just after they have kneaded the ear plug to make it soft and moldable, they pinch off at least (a third), and insert a smaller ear plug that fits their ear canal better, is more comfortable, seals easier and blocks out better. This can make a big difference, yet you do want to insert enough ear plug material to be able to block out well.
1. Just as you are about to insert, take ONE ear plug and {work it or knead it}thoroughly between your fingers or hands for at least 25 seconds to make it soft, moldable and to disburse the Pure Lanolin throughout the ear plug. Pure Lanolin makes the ear plug slightly tacky so that it stays securely in the ear canal and seals it. When the ear plug is soft and moldable and ready to insert, it doesn't matter what shape it is; round, flat, long or narrow; just follow the next step. If you are going to pinch off to make a smaller ear plug, then now is the time.

3. Now take the other ear plug, prepare it the same way & insert it into the other ear. With both ear plugs inserted correctly & sealing the ear canals, you should notice a big improvement.
4. To Remove: Simply pinch the ear plug with your thumb & index finger and gently pull downward and out.
